Volume 2 Chapter 67 Like a beast 

<Previous Chapter<Table of Contents>Next Chapter>

It was worried that it would not be able to protect those bones, so it would rather put them in its body so they fuse into one. This way even if it died, its child would not be damaged. 

After all the bones were stuffed into the body, the zombie king looked at everyone with eyes red as blood. 

This was the end of the world. The end of the world was the cruelest time. People had to protect and zombies had their cravings. One can’t tell who is right or who is wrong. 

In fact, Shao Qing was still slightly entangled. She can see that Zhao Hansheng was a good person. It would be a pity if he died, but she couldn’t help him. She could only watch the zombie king rampage through the crowd. 

After the zombie king became crazy, Zhao Hansheng was like he was on drugs. He crazily rushed towards the front. Whenever the zombie king tried to attack his teammates, Zhao Hansheng would use a crazy attack to lead the zombie king away or directly become a human flesh shield. He became a shield that protects his teammates. 

In that short time, no one was killed under the hands of the zombie king, but Zhao Hansheng was fully worn out.

Even if he could liquefy his body, it can’t be used all the time. Furthermore, during liquefaction, he wouldn’t be able to attack. Thus Zhao Hansheng uses his body as a shield to protect his teammates. 

Those superhumans gritted their teeth and attacked the zombie king desperately to relieve the pressure off Zhao Hansheng, and there was a temporary balance on both sides. 

It was already nine o’clock in the evening when Shao Qing looked at the time. If this continued, Zhao Hansheng would fail. 

Just when all those superhumans were fatigued and were about to fail, there was suddenly a particularly sharp howl that sounded in the north. 

The zombie king who could have killed Zhao Hansheng and the others immediately waved  her hand decisively and gave a roar. The sounds echoed, then retreating from the battle, it entered the crowd and went north. 

As soon as Zhao Hansheng broke away from the battle group, he laid on the ground, breathing heavily, as if all his strength had been drawn out. 

He couldn’t help being desperate. Was the zombie king about to launch a siege? 

When Shao Qing walked past him, she passed some ointments and medicine over to stop the bleeding. It was helpful for them to use while they were all injured.

Zhao Hansheng couldn’t help but grab Shao Qing’s trouser legs. Shao Qing lowered her head and looked at him suspiciously. Zhao Hansheng’s eyes were angry: “Why?” 

Why not participate in the battle against the zombie king, why not save those who died? Obviously you have that ability, obviously you were a member of the team…. 

Shao Qing knew Zhao Hansheng’s doubts, but was not prepared to explain, and was too lazy to explain. Was she supposed to tell Zhao Hansheng and the others that she was like the zombie king? That once she battled with this zombie king, the zombies would go mad and immediately start the siege. 

Do you think I did not help you? I expelled those zombies who tried to approach and created a relatively favorable situation for you. 

Thus, she was not prepared to explain the entire story from beginning to end. Anyway, after solving this, she would leave. It is estimated that there were not many chances in her life to meet Zhao Hansheng again. If she was misunderstood, then let her be misunderstood. 

Anyways, she and Zhao Hansheng were not familiar with each other. What if she was misunderstood? 

Shao Qing lifted her foot a little higher, and then pulled the trouser legs out of Zhao Hansheng’s hands, then chased in the direction of the zombie king’s departure. 

But wherever she passed, those zombies would give way.

Zhao Hansheng closed his eyes, unable to tell whether it was despair or not. He knew that he and his partners could not go back. There were zombies all around, and they were all wounded. That spray could not cover the smell of their blood. As soon as the zombie king left, the zombies around them would tear them to pieces. 

There was only a dead end. 

Zhao Hansheng closed his eyes and waited for a long time, but did not feel the pain come. He opened his eyes and found a group of zombies walking past him. They all looked at him as if he was a freshly barbecued duck yet they had no money to buy it.  

The group of zombies carried the expression “This human must be delicious”. Then they walked past him without looking back. 

Although he didn’t know what happened, one thing was certain: they were lucky to survive. 

Although Zhao Hansheng was still worried he would be torn to pieces as soon as he moved, the thought that the zombies had moved towards the base encouraged him to get up.

Zhao Hansheng tentatively took two steps. Those zombies still didn’t touch him. He was relieved and said to his friends: “You need to find a place to hide.” Then he hurriedly followed the direction where the zombie king left.

The injuries of the others were not light. They all knew that when the zombies attacked the city, the gate of the base would not be opened, so they would definitely not be able to return to the base. They could only find a place to hide. 

Before leaving, the group also carried their dead companions.

Shao Qing continued forward, tailing the zombie king from a distance. Then she saw the zombie king and several zombies that looked strange. One looked like a human and a monkey combined specimen and in the middle there was even a mutated dog.

Then the mutated dog took the zombie king, and the zombie king took its little brother and went in one direction. 

Finally it stood on a mound. All the zombies were quiet, under the command of the zombie king, ambushing nearby. 

After a while, the ground suddenly moved, and a black hole was formed. A man with a slightly wretched face stretched out its head and looked around. Then it jumped out, shouting to the hole: “Safe, come on out.” 

Then, a lot of people came out of the tunnel, including the base chief. 

The base chief said while coming out: “Fortunately, we had a backup plan or we would die in the city. Now hurry…” Before he finished talking, he saw the zombie king standing on the mound. He took a step back and almost fell to the ground. 

“Base chief, what’s the matter with you?” The wretched man hadn’t discovered the zombie king yet. He thought that the base chief was just distressed about his own career and said: “Although this base is gone, we can always start a new base in another place.” 

The base chief couldn’t hear him anymore, and just stared straight at the zombie king. You couldn’t tell what emotions were in his eyes. 

After a long time, he slowly backed away while looking for a way to escape. When the zombie king screamed, all the zombies who were lying in ambush ran out. The whole group was surrounded with no way to escape. 

The base chief’s smile was a bit ugly. He looked around and knew that he was at a dead end, so he lowered his voice, as if he was affectionately saying: “Su Yun, are you here to find me?” 

The zombie king stared at him closely, its eyes narrowed. It became more and more red, as if it was going to bleed. The aura on its body became heavier and more terrifying. 

Only Shao Qing could see it. At that moment, it broke through and became the middle of the fifth rank, which was a little stronger than Shao Qing now. 

The head of the base was really afraid, his legs were soft, let alone those who followed him. The zombie king came over step by step until it was in front of the base chief, and then it raised her hand. The nails shone like cold blades. 

The head of the base suddenly spoke: “Su Yun, do you remember? I gave you your ring. At that time, I was poor. I couldn’t afford gold or silver. I used a coin and hollowed out the center to make a ring. You, at that time, you said that this was the best-looking ring in the world.” 

The zombie king was at a loss for a moment. It didn’t have much memory at all. It was only deeply obsessed and had a deep hatred for some reason. 

The base chief continued: “At that time, everyone looked down on me as a poor boy. Only you married me with no regrets. Our wedding was very shabby. There was no wedding dress, no banquet, no red roses that you loved. I had cut a chinese rose and placed it in your hair. It was only you and me, holding hands and receiving a marriage certificate … “

His watery eyes showed deep affection: “Do you remember me … do you remember?” 

Just when the zombie king’s mind was in chaos, he suddenly pounced over. It looked as if he wanted to hug the zombie king, but he was actually clutching a dagger in his hand and viciously thrusted it into the zombie king’s chest fiercely. 

In its chest were the bones of the child. Being touched, the zombie king went mad and made the base chief go flying with a slap. 

He flew all the way to the mound, spitting blood as soon as he fell to the ground. Then he turned and ran to the zombies that surrounded him. 

His speed was very fast, and there was a light blue mark on his ankle area. It turns out that he was also a superhuman, a wind elemental user.

When the zombie king roared, it chased after him. The base leader who was running fast was then kicked back. 

Shao Qing chuckled, watching the base chief turn into a rolling gourd, and then said: “Since you are so affectionate with it, then why do you have to leave? Why not have a joyful reunion?” 

The base chief was kicked in the heart. He couldn’t breathe. He looked at Shao Qing in amazement. He seemed unable to determine why Shao Qing wanted to do this.

Shao Qing folded her arms and continued to watch with excitement. Now she can be sure that the base chief and the zombie king know each other and not only that, but they were probably husband and wife. 

So why did they turn against each other and why did she turn into a zombie? Why did she have such a deep desire to kill the base chief? 

Shao Qing felt that there must be a lot of hidden feelings within. She wanted to know. 

The zombie king gave Shao Qing a look, but was somewhat grateful. It crouched down, grabbed the long neck of the base chief, and wanted to strangle him. 

The base chief grabbed the zombie king’s wrist, and the other hand formed a wind blade to pierce the zombie king’s eyes. While the zombie king turned her head to dodge, the base chief was struggling to get out of the zombie king’s hold. 

All this happened in a flash, and those who came out with the base manager were stunned. What was with this situation? 

Shao Qing was very curious. First, she can be sure that this base manager was not good. Would a good base chief leave the entire base at the moment of life and death to escape secretly?

Second, he could say affectionate words to a zombie then attack it. Could ordinary people do this? 

The most important thing is the identity of the zombie king and why does it hold the bone of a child seeking revenge against the base chief?

Shao Qing was extremely curious. She bit her nails and watched the base leader’s group get chased by the zombies, just like watching a movie. 

Until Zhao Hansheng arrived. As soon as he saw the head of the base being chased by the zombies, he hurried forward to protect him. Shao Qing felt some headaches at that time. Why did this person come again? 

He has been injured all over, shouldn’t he find a place to recover? Why are you back to find death? If it was to save this bastard who dropped the entire base, then it’s not worth it. 

Shao Qing calmly reached out, and immediately vines emerged from the bottom of Zhao Hansheng’s feet. His strength originally was not as good as Shao Qing and he was seriously injured, so he couldn’t avoid it at all. 

“You! You let me go!” Zhao Hansheng glared at Shao Qing, gritting his teeth and said: “You… you’re …” He didn’t know how to curse someone and after a while he squeezed out: “Scum!” 

Shao Qing sneered then slapped his skull: “Is your head full of water? Why don’t you think about it? Why do you think your great base chief appeared here? Is such a person worthy of you using your life to protect?”

Zhao Hansheng straightened up, he was not stupid. He quickly understood and didn’t speak for a while.

Shao Qing pulled him aside and continued to watch the situation unfold. She watched as the zombie king stepped closer to the base chief. When it had reached the base chief, it waved its claw at the base chief. The base chief immediately dragged a person to use as a shield. 

The man couldn’t even say a word, and his head was smashed by the zombie king. As soon as the man died, the base chief, under the cover of the body, escaped again. 

Then, in order to get out of the predicament, he pushed another person around him into the group of zombies and watched him get eaten by the zombies. 

Zhao Hansheng who had been staring at it for a long time was stunned. He knew that if it was not Shao Qing who had forced him to stay by her, the one who would have been treated as a meat shield would be him.

Could it be that he has always been loyal to protect such a person? A base chief who abandoned the entire base and fled, a base chief who used his companions as a shield, a base chief who pushed othres into a group of zombies?

Shao Qing handed a small cookie to Zhao Hansheng: “Do you want to eat a little bit to ease the shock?”

Zhao Hansheng immediately looked at her with weird eyes. In Zhao Hansheng’s eyes, Shao Qing was like an exotic flower. The bloody scene in front of him was enough to cause people to be unable to eat, yet here she was still eating biscuits. 

Shao Qing placed the entire biscuit in her mouth and then continued to watch the show. She was convinced that the best part was coming up. 

Shao Qing was surrounded by vines making threatening gestures. Anytime a zombie inadvertently approached, it would be quickly flung away. The base chief who was fatigued and worn out by the zombie king, when he saw Shao Qing, he couldn’t help but think about transferring his calamity. 

This was probably the most erroneous decision he made tonight. He jumped up and rushed to Shao Qing. Before he had time to say anything or do something, he was pelted by the vines and turned into a pig’s head. 

He almost did not escape the zombie king’s attack.

Shao Qing smiled and said: “Want to pull me into the water? I can give you the opportunity. Just tell me the gossip about this zombie king. If I’m happy with what I hear, maybe I will save you. Then no person or zombie can kill you.” 

He hesitated, but another person spoke without hesitation: “I am his close childhood friend. I know all his things. If you save me, I will tell you!” 

Shao Qing stretched out a vine and dragged him over hanging him: “Speak. If you lie to me, I will throw you into the zombies.” 

The man swallowed and then peeked at the head of the base: “He is a beast, a human face with a beast heart!”

Shao Qing was stunned by his speech. Hey, isn’t this man your childhood friend? This evaluation is a bit sharp! 

The man summoned up his courage and continued, “If I didn’t want to live well, I would have parted ways with this guy with such a beastly heart. The female zombie is his wife Yang Suyun, who followed him when he was still poor. She was very supportive of him.  She had taken out all her savings and wages to make entrepreneurial funds for him. As a result, this wolf-hearted man actually took the money out to gamble and found a mistress. When he had no money, he came back and asked Yang Suyun for more. Yang Suyun didn’t know what he was doing outside, so she gave him all her money. She would only eat buns and salted pickles every day. Until Yang Suyun became pregnant, then this guy moderated himself a bit.” 

The man took a breath and began to curse: “But a dog can’t stop himself from eating sh*t. Within a few days, he went out to cheat again. God doesn’t have eyes. He never allowed Yang Suyun to discover that he was such a beast. When the child was about one years old, the apocalypse happened. Didn’t the TV say that many people fell into a coma, and when they woke up, they turned into zombies and bit people? This beast actually threw his son from the sixth floor just because his son was in a coma at that time. He was worried that his son would become a zombie, so he threw his son down. A one-year-old child fell from the sixth floor. Besides falling to death is there any other possibility? Who can do such a thing besides beasts? No matter how evil a tiger is, at least it wouldn’t eat its own son!” 

The base chief burst into colours of red and white, then shouted: “Shut up!”

The man rolled his eyes sarcastically, and then continued to speak: “What is even more ruthless is that Yang Suyun almost went crazy at that time. She tried to go downstairs to find her son and then was beaten up by this beast. Locked up, she was not allowed to go out until there was no food at home. Then, guess what he did?” 

His voice echoed in the open space, everyone raised their ears to listen. The man sneered and continued: “He actually wanted to kill Yang Suyun and eat Yang Suyun’s meat! He regretted that he had thrown his son out the window instead of killing him and placing him in the fridge. He told me that himself. Yang Suyun went crazy and jumped from the sixth floor. She probably got bitten then and tried to come back for revenge. Bah, I think he deserves it.” 

After he said this, let alone Shao Qing, even those who were together with the base chief couldn’t help but stay a little farther away from him. Killing his own child and eating his wife, how psychotic must he be to do this? 

Zhao Hansheng was a straight honest man and struggled within his bindings: “You let me go! I’m going to kill him!” 

Shao Qing couldn’t help but slap him, sneering, “You were just about to sacrifice your life to protect him, now you want to kill him? You can just obediently squat here for me.” 

After slapping Zhao Hansheng, Shao Qing patted the talking man, she smiled and said: “Very good, very cooperative, you are safe.” Then the vine lifted him all the way away from the surrounding zombies and flung him to the side.

The man was stunned for a while, then was pleasantly surprised. He shouted his thanks, and then spat at the base chief before walking in the direction of the base. 

After sending the man away, Shao Qing said to the king of zombies: “I won’t stop you from taking revenge, but after your revenge, just leave here. The people at the base are innocent after all.” 

The king of zombies already had some awareness, it gave a low howl responding to Shao Qing. Then it looked at the base chief. The base chief wanted to run. As a result, Shao Qing’s vines bound his legs all at once. 

After being restrained, he had no chance to run. He could only watch as the zombie king came over, grabbing his neck, and holding his face close, with deep hatred. 

He struggled twice, and then there was a clicking sound in his throat. Quickly, his eyes looked as if they were about to fall out of his eyes. 

Because suddenly a hand was inserted into his chest stirring around in exploration. Finally, it caught a ball of fluttering meat. 

That was his heart.
